C. H. SUNDBERG;
VEGETABLE MASHER APPLICATION FILED SEPT. 7, 1920.
Eat-stated Apr. 5, 1921.
UNETEE D STATE CARL H. SUN'DBERG, OF CHICAGO, ILLINOIS.
VEGETABLE-MASHER.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Apr. 5, 1%21.
Application filed September 7, 1920. Serial No. 408,493.
T 0 all 10 7mm :52? may concern Be it known that I, CARL I-I. SUNDBERG, a citizen of the United States, residin at Chicago, in the county of Cook and tate of Illinois, have invented new and useful Improvements in Vegetable -Mashers, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to certain details of construction in vegetable mashers whereby the mashing process is improved and the operation hastened, furthermore the device is so constructed that it can be easily and quickly made at a comparatively low cost and yet is durable and efficient.
These several advantages and objects are attained by so making the mashing bars that they will crush and not cut the material as they are forced through the same and extending angles and corners are eliminated.
To describe my invention so that others versed in the art to which it pertains can make and use the same I have illustrated it on the accompanying sheet of drawing forming a part of this specification, and in which Figure 1, is a perspective view of a vegetable masher embodying my invention and Figs. 2 and 8 are vertical cross sectional views taken on planes at right angles to each other.
Similar reference characters refer to similar parts throughout the several views.
The frame of the masher is of the usual form comprising two wires 4, 4-, similarly formed with a straight base 5 being the middle of the wire, and with the ends of the wire extending upward a short distance and then together at a common center where the four ends of the two wires are twisted together and secured in a handle 6.
The construction thus far described forms no part of my invention. The mashing bars '7, of which any desired number may be employed, are made preferably of half round wire with the flat surface facing down and the rounded portion up. The bars 7 are spaced apart suitably for the kind of vegetable to be mashed and have their ends rigidly secured to the straight base portions 5 of the wires l preferably by spot welding the same together. The ends of the bars 7 have their lower corners rounded as clearly shown at 8 in Figs. 1 and 8.
The purpose of forming the bars 7 as shown, Z'.-6., flat on the lower side and round on the upper side is to crush or mash the material as the device is pushed down through the same and when it is withdrawn upwardly the material will not cling to the bars 7, but will naturally slide off of the rounded portion. The rounded corners 8 protect thehands of the person using the device especially when cleaning or washing the same.
It will be understood that the form, size and arrangement of the parts may be varied without in the least departing from the scope of my invention.
Having thus fully described my invention what I claim as new and desireto see cure by Letters Patent of the United States 1. In a device of the class described, mashing elements provided with flat lower surfaces and rounded upper surfaces.
2. In a device of the class described, a suitable frame, a plurality of mashing bars rigidly secured to the frame provided with flat lower surfaces and rounded upper sur faces.
3. In a device of the class described, a
suitable frame, a plurality of parallel mashing bars arranged in the same horizontal lane ri idl secured to the frame a'rovided P as Y 1 with fiat lower surfaces and rounded upper surfaces. I
In testimony whereof. I have signed my name to this specification in presence of a subscrlbing witness this lthday of September, 1920, at Chicago, Illinois.
CAR-L H. SUNDBERG. Witness:
RIoHD. J. J ACKER.
